    UTIL-H-1-10: "Bus Error" and "Segmentation Fault"

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 18.01

    Description:
    We've been working our our tab_base.eng and tab_base_z0102, here is the message we get when running UTIL-H-1-10 on these two files:
    Checking Library type (tab10)
    Z0102 Setup
    Bus Error

    When UTIL-H-1-10 is run against a slightly different version of these files it gives a "Segmentation Fault" message.

    Resolution:
    The problem had to do with the setup of tab00.eng.
    The reserved word "alldocuments" uses the WRD index line when searching the database. You need to have a line like this in tab00.eng:
    H WRD W-001 00 01 Words

    After adding this line to tab00.eng, we were able to run the report.

    You must have a WRD W-001 index if you want to use "alldocuments" as part of a base.
